This simple car is equipped with a spring-loaded plunger and displacement scale to measure the amount of impact created by a collision of the car against a stationary surface. The displacement scale remains in displaced position until it is reset. Mass can be added to the car to increase the inertia of the mass and car system allowing the student to develop an understanding of collisions in the real world. Instructions included.
